For decades, real estate investment was heavily centered around the capital city. With companies like Optiven opening up in areas like Kitengela, Kitale, Narumoru, Nanyuki, Kimuka Ngong, Vipingo, Malindi & other areas, The cities are drastically changing In the past, Nairobi became the heartbeat of property development, business growth, and urban expansion.

The Rise of Kenya’s New Urban Frontiers Kenya’s development is no longer a single-city story.
